Porch

A poor remodel left this 1920s Craftsman home with a charmless enclosed porch and no discernible entry.

After removing the rigid façade of oversized windows and static posts, we installed boxed columns, period doors and windows, and a sunroom that looks like a vintage addition. A flagstone walk now welcomes neighbors in.

Knowing that [the front porch] would be the focal point of the house, we wanted only the finest artisans in all of Portland to bring the old porch back to life – this had become a labor of love!  My daughter, a landscape architect, researched several local design firms, and after meeting with Wade Freitag, decided that Craftsman Design and Renovation was clearly the one for the job.
